Enjoy a delicious, nutrient-packed dinner featuring a perfectly seared salmon fillet paired with crisp, roasted asparagus and a creamy cauliflower mash. The dish is elevated with a drizzle of olive oil and subtle seasonings, providing a satisfying balance of lean protein and fresh vegetables.
INGREDIENTS
7 ounces Salmon Fillet
1 cup Asparagus
1 cup Cauliflower
1 tablespoon Extra Virgin Olive Oil
1 teaspoon Garlic Powder
Salt and Pepper to taste
1 tablespoon Lemon Juice
PREPARATION
Preheat your oven to 400°F.
Trim the asparagus by snapping off the woody ends. Toss the asparagus with half of the olive oil, salt, and pepper. Spread them out on a baking sheet and roast in the oven for 12-15 minutes until tender and slightly crispy.
Meanwhile, steam the cauliflower florets until they become very soft, about 8-10 minutes.
While the cauliflower is steaming, heat a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Pat the 7-ounce salmon fillet dry, season generously with salt, pepper, and garlic powder.
Sear the salmon skin-side down (if applicable) for about 3-4 minutes until the skin is crisp, then flip and cook for another 3-4 minutes until the salmon is just cooked through. Drizzle a little lemon juice over the salmon during the last minute of cooking for brightness.
Drain the steamed cauliflower and transfer it to a bowl. Add the remaining half tablespoon of olive oil along with a pinch of salt and pepper. Mash until smooth, adjusting seasoning as needed.
Plate the seared salmon alongside a serving of roasted asparagus and a generous scoop of cauliflower mash. Finish with an extra drizzle of lemon juice if desired.
